Chapter 488: Assist

Dong Xiaoya hadn't seen Xiao Jing so happy for a long time.

In Xiaoya's impression, he is a quiet and peaceful person, always gentle when he laughs, and only occasionally laughs when he encounters something particularly funny.

By the way, he still has a smile. It was when I first met Xue'er, and that gentle and somewhat flattering smile......

Dong Xiaoya pursed her lips and smiled, but there was soon a little more loneliness in that smile.

Out of a sense of proportion as a deputy, she didn't ask what it was. However, Xiao Jing soon revealed the answer:

"Yesterday, for some reason, Your Majesty summoned the prince in Beijing for a banquet after a long absence. There was nothing to do during the banquet, but after the third round of drinking, His Majesty suddenly mentioned a little about the displaced people in Hedong, and said that 'the prince should be an example'......"

Xiao Jing happily picked up the cup and drank the tea that had already been cooled: "With these words at the bottom, who dares not to contribute?" Oh, I originally thought that I was going to cheapen King Zhao's kid, but who knew that the saint would also have such a powerful day! Come on, Xiaoya will help me get some wine, such a good thing should be a big deal! ”

Dong Xiaoya responded with a smile, but when she turned around, there was a melancholy in her eyes.

In a sense, this is clearly not a good thing.

What is the emperor's generous offer of assists, could it be that the actions of the mirror newspaper are moving?

Of course not.

Chen Borui just wanted to punish those sons who behaved so out-of-the-ordinary that they almost challenged the imperial power, especially King Zhao, who was the initiator. Such a slap in the face is a resounding warning that people like it will at least know how to converge.

At the same time, he provoked the contradiction between the prince and the Mirror News: Originally, everyone was fine, what kind of donations did you make? Now it's a collective hemorrhage!

Many princes whose interests have been damaged will definitely hold a grudge against Xiao Jing and even the Xia family, and Chen Borui is of course happy to see it!

After a while, Dong Xiaoya returned to the room with warm wine.

Putting down the cup and plate, Xiao Ya, who hesitated whether to remind Xiao Jing, moved her lips, but in the end she chose to be silent.

How could this person not understand?

All he cares about is whether the displaced people in Hedong can be resettled, and whether the victims of the dam failure will be unsustainable...... As for the rest, he didn't pay attention to it from the beginning!

Dong Xiaoya sighed and lowered her head to pour wine for Xiao Jing.

When she raised her head again, she finally noticed Xiao Jing's strange appearance.

At first glance, he looks like he's thinking with his head down, but if you look closer, you can see that he's closing his eyes and hearing even breathing......

Xiao Jing fell asleep.

Dong Xiaoya smiled gently, then quietly walked behind him and covered him with a dress......

The air here is warm, but the outside world has exploded.

Chen Borui's actions stirred up a thousand waves like a stone, and all those who received the news took action.

In just two days, the number of people who came to the mirror to donate surged.

Of course, this does not include the princes - except for Chen Zhongwen, who has already negotiated with Xiao Jing and completed the donation, the other princes have directly sent money into the palace as internal money, in order to show their filial piety as a son and their loyalty as a courtier to share the worries of the monarch.

"We received nearly 800,000 taels here." Xiao Jing, who was a little dazzled by the account book, stretched his waist: "Although it doesn't meet expectations, plus the part that will be allocated from the internal funds, it should be far more than planned." Come on, send the money. ”

With such a large sum of money, it is not a small rescue, according to the rules, it must be handed over to the imperial court for unified allocation, and only in this way will it not be stared at by countless eyes.

"Did you hear that? King Zhao paid 500,000 taels. Obviously it was the season to burn the stove, Shao Ning still pretended to fan the wind with a fan, shook his head and said: "Even if he is rich and rivals the country, it will hurt now, right?" ”

Xiao Jing shook his head and chuckled: "The pain is certain, but someone outside said that 'there is no surplus food in the palace'...... That's a joke. ”

Zhao Wang, who has been in business for many years, has a strong family background. Although it is far worse than the Xia family, it will never be less than 500,000 taels.

Thinking of King Zhao's crazy appearance at the moment, Xiao Jing's heart was relieved: "The culprit has paid the price, and Xiao finally asked for an explanation for Hedong's father...... Hey, I just like the way you can't get used to me and you can't kill me! ”

Ruidu, Zhao Wangfu.

In the past two days, the atmosphere in the house has been extremely heavy. King Zhao almost smashed things when he saw them, and his subordinates were also beaten at every turn, causing everyone to dare not take a mouthful, and they even had to be careful when walking.

That's 500,000 taels! Letting the prince take out so much money for nothing is really similar to stripping his flesh!

"Those people are all rice buckets, all of them are blasted out by this king!"

Hearing the roar of the prince, the people on the side couldn't help but mourn for a moment for the staff of the palace: It seems that someone is going to be unlucky again!

"Xiao Jing, Shaft!"

The roar was as tight as a burst, and it sounded a little crazy: "It is extremely arrogant to dare to calculate this king like this...... This king and you are incompatible! ”

His shouting was so loud that it could be heard in many corners of the palace. A few of the men seemed to be working earnestly, but upon hearing these words, they all shifted their positions, seemingly inadvertently, to a place where they could hear more clearly.

"He will wait for this king ......"

"Lord Wang, be cautious! That's not something to be said casually......"

All these words drifted into the ears of those who had a heart with the wind, and they were firmly remembered in their hearts......

Winter turns to spring, and the earth is dyed with new green again.

In the warm spring breeze, Xiao Jing was riding a horse.

He didn't come out to go out. An hour ago, he had just escorted Dong Xiaoya to the town north of Ruidu.

Although Xiaoya's work is very busy, Xiao Jing still gave her half a month's leave and asked her to stay there to accompany He Wan'er, who was already about to go crazy.

Thinking of the picture of He Wan'er being stunned for a moment just now, and then immediately jumping into Dong Xiaoya's arms and crying loudly, Xiao Jing was sad.

This Nizi really hurt her.

However, there is no other way. Before the matter of the Hundred Immortals Sect was completely revealed, He Wan'er could only live incognito.

Xiao Jing was melancholy, and a Xia family sent a letter.

From the north?

Looking at the secret note on the letter, Xiao Jing felt a little strange.

After the Great War in the North, there shouldn't be anything particularly worthy of the Xia family's attention, why did the person in charge of intelligence send this news to him in a hurry?

Xiao Jing opened the letter and glanced at it a few times.

In the next moment, he shook violently on his horse as if he couldn't sit still; If it weren't for the help of his quick-eyed subordinates, he would have almost fallen off his horse.

Something happened!
